Bioware continues to support and expand the world of Anthem by adding new content and fixing bugs within the game. The latest update 1.6.0 called Icetide is here and it brought localized ice storms into Bastion, bringing excitement with every glittering snowflake across the region. Ice is rare here, but when it arrives, people know that Icetide celebrations will soon follow. Holiday lights shine throughout Fort Tarsis, their bright colors sparkling on blankets of snow.
